One for the 6R4 Boys

Like it or loathe it Car SOS returns in March.

One programme is away from the normal classics they cover.

Its about restoring the ex David Gilanders MG Metro 6R4!!!

Lets hope Tim is not his usual idiotic self....

should be a good watch...

Wonder how much the family contributed to the budget? With cars with provenance like this going for around £500k at auction the production company would need deep pockets otherwise

Fantastic if very costly restoration.

Were our 6R4 boys involved with or knew about this one?

They will also know better than me but apart from Xavs model I dont know that anyone has done a model/decals for this one

I kinda knew but kept it quiet CD.

Correct Xav done the 87 car, the only other are the cheap horible Spanish decals. Vitor done the 86 RAC car. Have both in my collection.
